Product Description
1GB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device.
From amazon.com
The Sony ICDU70 digital voice recorder makes capturing audio a breeze. Built-in flash memory provides 1GB of storage capacity for storing large amounts of data. And with the ability to play MP3 music files, you can get even more enjoyment out of your personal recorder. The ICD-U70 stores up to 16 hours of MP3 music or up to 502 hours of dictation in LP mode. The included Digital Voice Up function increases the playback volume of the person speaking when recorded at a distance. The digital pitch control allows recordings to be heard at slower or faster than normal speeds without distortion to facilitate transcribing or editing, or to move faster than normal to a desired portion. Its slim, sleek design is constructed of all aluminum for a sophisticated look.

Features:

USB Compatible for Hi-Speed Transfer Rate to a PC via USB port on a PC.

MP3 Playback provides easy playback of unsecured MP3 files by dragging and dropping files into the MP3 folder on the device.

3 Recording Modes: HQ, SP, LP

Slim Style Design is only one-half inch thick and fits neatly into a shirt pocket.

Digital Voice Up and VOR (Voice Operated Recording) Functions increases the volume of the person speaking when recorded at a distance from the unit.

Digital Pitch Control allows recordings to be heard at slower than normal speeds without distortion to facilitate transcribing or editing, or faster than normal to move quickly to a desired portion.

Recording Monitor Function allows the user to listen to the recording level by using headphone while unit is recording.

1GB Flash Memory uses a high capacity IC chip, which may be used repeatedly for recording with distortion-free clarity.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good Hardware, really bad support on sound format conversion, December 12, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sony ICDU70 - 1GB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
I bought it mainly for speech (not music) recording.
It is a pretty good recording device. However, you can only
listen to the recordings using the recorder or play back on PC
using the software plugins for Windows media player.
The plugins comes with the player on a CD and I had no problem
installing it.

The recoding is in a proprietary SONY format called "dvf" or
"digital voice file". The software that comes with the recorder
can not convert dvf to any other format such as mp3 or wav.
It does not have a conversion feature.

As far as I can tell, you need to buy either a SONY digital vocie
transcript kit that comes wth SONY "digital voice editor" or some
3rd party software to do the conversion. I called SONY support asking
to buy a copy of "digital voice editor" and they sold and sent me
a CD for about $38.00. This CD is the same as the one that came...Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Very poor playback volume, January 30, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sony ICDU70 - 1GB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
I bought this recorder to do one-on-one interviews. I can't listen to the recordings on the actual player though, I have to transfer them to the computer and play them with an audio player- the volume of the recordings is too quiet on the recorder itself. The quality of the recordings is fine once you get them transfered. The folders and the amount of storage on the recorder are great, but if I would have known that you can not listen to the files on the recorder I would have never purchased this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Playback Volume, December 26, 2006
This review is from: Sony ICDU70 - 1GB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
I got this device for voice recording, specifically notes to myself.The device records well even at 2-3 feet way. The playback volume is pitiful, however, even at the highest setting. Calling support was no help as they just directed me to do what I had already done and then told me it was recommended that one should always listen to the recording through the headphones. That is inconvenient for my purposes and I don't see any place on the package or on the insert which states that.
